The Belgium international has been in sparkling form this season, fuelling speculation that he could be the next high-profile figure to head through the exits at Goodison Park.

Talk of a big-money move during the January transfer window is currently doing the rounds, with Chelsea among those said to be keen.

"I don't think they will let their best players go just like that.

"I want to play for one of the biggest clubs one day. But I am patient."
